Help Us Overcome Illegal Eviction Crisis

Peace,

We are reaching out to our community to help us move through this housing emergency.

Our landlord has illegally evicted us just a few days after receiving our rent payment on June 5th. We have now confirmed he has changed the locks and removed our belongings from the apartment to a communal basement. He has been ignoring calls, sending writing harassing messages, and is not being receptive to any of our basic needs/ requests via text/ email.

He is “holding our belongings free of charge until July 31st” and threatening that our return is unauthorized. This is our only home, we wish we had an answer to why on earth someone would do this but we don’t. Heartbreaking that paying rent and DOES NOT secure you housing in new york city when landlords feel like they are above the law.

Unfortunately, we do not have the funds to support us with this unplanned transition. 

Please help with what you can and thank you all for your help through this time. Our priority is to follow the protocols for tenant protection laws and to find a new home to keep growing from.

 Much love, A~Z
